Making magic with simple stitches.
An online embroidery course for beginners which I have created over the last 10 months and after years of teaching hundreds of women to learn this precious craft.
I invite you to join me on a journey to discover your abilities as an embroiderer.
If you’ve ever been overwhelmed by thousands of Youtube tutorials or Pinterest boards, not known which colours to choose, felt confused after watching a stitch video or you’ve been inspired for years to start this craft but felt that it’s too complicated or too involved, then this course was made for you.
I built this course around the three most important aspects of learning:
Skills
you learn stitches, materials, tools, tips and shortcuts, how to navigate around a design, read a pattern, thread needles in the most awesome way ever, how to use a hoop comfortably, my very own technique of choosing colours and more!
Practice
then we take all that and actually make a finished piece from beginning to end. Here you create a drawstring bag project beautifully embroidered and here is where you get to practice the skills on a real project. We don’t just stop on the sampler!
Inspiration
you’re here for more than just a “how to”, right? I am guessing you enjoy my style and colour work and want to see more of what you can make. I take you through loads of my own projects, show you how i have finished them off, show you colour ways you can use and inspire you with a tonne of my own work. There’s one special piece I show you at the end of the course which is the size of two dining tables… and it’s something you can make too. No I’m not joking.

“Kasia I loved everything about the course and kits and patterns I have bought and finished since. It has given me more confidence and inspiration. I have actually adapted a few patterns to fit onto items of clothing. Thank you.” - Andrea
“Kasia's designs have provided so much inspiration to me. I can totally recommend the Stitchcraft course. It is so clear to follow, and the instructions and video are really helpful because they are written really well, every detail is covered in a very clear way. The course is really good value for money, especially when you think how many years of experience have gone into it. I am lucky to have the Eva Embroidery Kit, the linen is beautiful, I haven't finished it yet but I am hoping to get some time to do that soon. Thank you so much.” - Victoria x
“This online course is excellent. I have been wanting to learn embroidery for many years, and this course has given me the start I needed. The content of the course is very clear and the videos are very easy to follow. And being able to watch them over and over again is a huge benefit. The course materials are excellent value for money, and well worth it for a beginner like me! Thank you Kasia for a very well designed course. I thoroughly enjoyed it.” - Sarah M.
“This course is a wonderful refresher course if you haven’t stitched for some time, or years! Reignited the fire and confidence for my creative soul not to mention the joy it brings when you complete the projects included. Thank you Kasia for all of your beautiful designs.” - Teresa S.

OTHER ONLINE COURSES COMING SOON…
“MASTERING THE HERRINGBONE STITCH” ONLINE COURSE
coming soon
This is by far my favourite stitch. I love doing big bold work, such as wall hangings, cushion covers or clothes and the Herringbone Stitch is ideal for this type of work. An in depth immersion class giving you the expertise in using the Herringbone Stitch which allows for fast, large scale filling of any shape and results in beautifully textured work
I go over the basics first and then move into how to curve around bends and how to fill complex shapes. You will be able to solid fill leaves, petals and stems quickly and create textured, bold and colourful pieces that make an impact.
You will learnt he open, closed and double Herringbone Stitch and we also cover stitches that are complementary to and enhance the Herringbone Stitch. This Masterclass is best for students who have done some embroidery before.
“POLISH FOLK EMBROIDERY” ONLINE COURSE
coming soon
Great for those who have done some embroidery before and are interested in learning traditional folk style stitching from Poland. I bring designs inspired by Polish folk costumes and teach not only the necessary stitches but also colour combinations, traditions, meaning of patterns and how to vary the design so it will fit onto other projects.
In addition to a number of filling, outline and isolated stitches there is a big focus on using the satin stitch to fill large floral shapes and I show you some great techniques to assist with making the satin stitch easy to master. As with all classes you will receive all the necessary video tutorials as well as different patterns and colour variations to choose from.
I will also show you how to vary an existing pattern so you can embroider matching pieces with smaller designs.
“WOOL ON LINEN EMBROIDERY” ONLINE COURSE
coming soon
Are you a knitter? Got a stash of yarn at home? Even if you aren’t and you don’t stitching with wool on linen is A-AMA-ZING. Why because of the texture, softness and thick tactile results. Wool embroidery is a beautiful and slow craft and I teach my unique techniques and as well as get you skilled on choosing the right type of yarn for this kind of work. The results are stunning but are simple to apply.
You will use both ply and single spun yarn for different effects and will learn a variety of both filling and outline stitches. Perfect for those who have done some embroidery previously.
“INK & THREAD” ONLINE COURSE
coming soon
If you only knew how simple making your own stencilled and embroidered creations is you would be stunned! There is method to every madness and in this awesome online class (and never before taught as an in-person workshop) I take you through the steps of designing and cutting your own stencils, then printing onto your fabric and finally covering with luscious embroidery stitches. This class is inspired by the traditional Polish paper cutting techniques that i learned as a child growing up in Poland.
This technique is perfect for creating big statement pieces like table cloths, big skirts, large wall hangings, or go for something smaller like a cushion cover. The beauty of this combination of techniques is that you don’t need all that much stitching! I show you the best stitches and best colour combinations to bring glorious results and stun your friends. Or stun yourself, even better! The class comes with not only video tutorials but all your necessary PDF’s such as patterns, materials lists, stitch descriptions etc.
